    The Wine Attributes with the Greatest Influence in the Process of Consumer Choice in Spain

    No full text
    The commercialisation of wine in Spain is problematic due to two concrete circumstances: the decrease in wine consumption because of a consumer shift toward substitute drinks and the greater presence of national and foreign wine in the interior market, which involves an increase in business competitiveness. The increase in competitiveness of quality Spanish wine depends on producing enterprises’ knowledge of wine consumer preferences so they can offer consumers what they demand. In order to respond to this matter and better adapt supply, 421 wine consumers were surveyed using the Best-Worst Scaling methodology. Various segmentations were also made by consumer income and age groups. The results indicate that the two main attributes which condition consumers in choosing wine are the region of origin and having tasted it previously. The region of origin attribute is valued in general by consumers over 34 years old who have a monthly family income above 1,500 €. The attribute of having tasted it before, which on many occasions is associated with the price attribute, is valued particularly by younger consumers and those with lower incomes.Consumer behaviour, Wine attributes, Food Marketing, Consumer/Household Economics,

    How corporate governance and globalization can run afoul of the law and good practices in business: The Enron's disgraceful affair.

    No full text
    The purpose of this paper is to set out the Enron’s demise into the perspective of Corporate and Global Governance. To accomplish this target, the incremental cash flow model is expanded to give room for governance issues, while a functional introduction to information sets is developed, including bounded rationality, asymmetric information, opportunistic behavior, transaction costs and agency problems. Then, corporate governance is linked to globalization by means of some recent approaches that go beyond a narrow economic mindset to encompass a far-reaching dynamics. Taking advantage of such background, the Enron’s story is tracked down over a span of fifteen years since its starting day to its bankruptcy filing. Leading events are explained from corporate and global governance viewpoints, while an in-depth analysis is worked out on Enron’s complex game of deception and breach of contracts: the outrageous affiliated limited partnerships, the lavish pay package to its executives, the involvement with global governance through the Indian affair and the Taliban connection. It is for the incremental cash flow model to explain malfeasance with cash flows from assets, and how cash flows to creditors were actually contrived. Furthermore, to highlight how cash flows were swindled from stockholders and, finally, how Enron made wheeling and dealing with cash flows on behalf of its managers.corporate governance, global governance, incremental cash flow model, globalization, information sets, good practices.

    In this article the author intends to offer an overall profile of Dr. Rodolfo Lenz’ versatile personality, portraying him as the man, the phonetician, the expert scholar in Araucanian, the orthographer, the methodologist, the compulsive scientist. All these personality traits contributed to renovate in Chile the interest in language, in foreign language methodology and the institutionalization of folklore as a science, which earned him the Chilean nationalityEn este trabajo el autor se propone dar una visión de conjunto de la polifacética personalidad del Dr. Rodolfo Lenz: el hombre, el fonetista, el araucanista, el lexicógrafo, el gramático, el ortógrafo, el metodólogo, el científico compulsivo. Aspectos todos que contribuyeron a renovar profundamente en Chile el estudio de las ciencias del lenguaje, la metodología de la enseñanza de las lenguas extranjeras y la fundación del folclor como ciencia, por todo lo cual el Gobierno le confirió nuestra nacionalida

    Perturbaciones en la atmósfera superior en latitudes subaurorales durante tormentas geomagnéticas intensas

    Neutral gas density data (molecular nitrogen N2 and atomic oxygen O) between 310 and 330 km of altitude obtained by the Dynamic Explorer 2 satellite and ground-based foF2 data obtained with ionosondes were used to examine the response of the thermosphere-ionosphere system to an intense geomagnetic storm occurred on September 5, 1982. The results represent a comparison of simultaneous measurements of storm disturbances in gas composition and peak electron density. Increases of N2 concentration and concurrent decreases of O concentration are observed during the geomagnetic storm, being the N2 variation greater than O variation. Both changes contribute to explain the reduction in ionization density. Delayed increases of ionization are attributed to particle precipitation rather than ionization transport.Mediciones de composición de neutros (nitrógeno molecular N 2 y oxígeno atómico O) obtenidas entre 310 y 330 km por el satélite Dynamic Explorer 2, y de frecuencia crítica foF2 obtenidas con ionosondas, se utilizan para examinar las respuestas de la termosfera y de la ionosfera a una tormenta geomagnética intensa ocurrida el 5 de septiembre de 1982. Los resultados obtenidos representan una comparación de mediciones simultáneas de perturbaciones en la composición de los gases neutros in situ y del pico de densidad electrónica. Se observan incrementos en la concentración de N 2 y disminuciones de O, siendo mayor la variación de N 2 que la de O. Ambos cambios contribuyen a explicar los descensos de densidad electrónica observados. Incrementos de ionización retardados respecto al comienzo de la tormenta se atribuyen a una precipitación de partículas antes que a un transporte de ionización.Fil: Mansilla, Gustavo Adolfo.

    A Rat Treated with Mesenchymal Stem Cells Lives to 44 Months of Age

    AbstractThere is a growing interest in the potential of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) for implementing regenerative medicine. We assessed the effect of intravenous administration of human bone marrow-derived MSC on the life span of a single Sprague-Dawley female rat. The treatment was started when the rat was 6 months old and the cells were administered every 2 weeks afterward. The treatment did not induce any obvious changes in body growth or behavior and the rat showed the typical age changes for this strain, except that, unlike intact counterparts, the animal did not develop mammary tumors or pituitary gland hyperplasia. The more remarkable effect of the treatment was on life span, which was 44 months compared with an average of 36 months for intact laboratory rats. We conclude that despite the low N value, it is likely that the MSC treatment was responsible for the exceptionally long survival of the rat. The potential rewards of confirming the present findings warrant further studies involving higher N values.Fil: Mansilla, Eduardo. Provincia de Buenos Aires. Ministerio de Salud.

    El funcionalismo de rodolfo lenz

    Summary This paper deals with the contributions to Hispanic Linguistics by the German-Chilean linguist Rodolfo Lenz (1863–1935), some of whose proposals – often attributed to other scholars – may be seen as an alternative to the ideas of the prestigious Andrés Bello (1781–1865). The paper first reviews those aspects of his work which anticipate some of the basic tenets of Functional Grammar, such as the notion of ‘transposition’ (function shifting), his views on sentential structure, and his treatment of passives as attributive constructions. The paper also explores Lenz’s contributions to Indo-European linguistics and his theoretical affinities with, if not anticipations of, the work of other well-known linguists like Búhler, Tesnière, Hjelmslev, and Benveniste. In sum, the author seeks to vindicate Rodolfo Lenz and his insightful views in both general linguistic theory and Spanish grammar.</jats:p
